The Huaytapallana mountain range (possibly from Quechuawayta wild flower, a little bunch of flowers, pallay to collect, pallana an instrument to collect fruit; collectable, Waytapallana "a place where you collect wild flowers")[1][2] lies in the Junín Region in the Andes of Peru. It extends between 11°47' and 11°56'S and 75°00' and 75°05'W for about 17 km.[3] The surface area of the zone is 378'40 km2. The range is located in the provinces of Concepción and Huancayo.
In 2011 Huaytapallana was declared an Area of Regional Conservation by Supreme Decrete No. 018-2011-MINAM. The area of 22,406.52 ha is situated in the districts of El Tambo, Huancayo, Pariahuanca and Quilcas of the Huancayo Province and in the Comas District of the Concepción Province.[4]
The Huaytapallana mountain range is about 2 hours drive from the city Huancayo in the Junín Region. It is located 8 hours north-east of Lima.
For mountaineers in the mountain range, the departure point is called Virgen de las Nieves (Virgin of the Snow), located at 4,800 m (15,750 ft). At the Virgen de las Nieves there are two itineraries after which the ascent to the tip of the Huaytapallana can be completed.
